Obviously everyone here feels terrible about what happened on Sunday. I’m told Handley was a good officer and it was a bad, weird way to go.

As you know our work here is highly experimental, and it looks like one of your active projects is capable of interfering with the internal electronics of Rooke and Intex firearms. We can’t discuss details of course, but it does appear to have been an accident, and I believe the surviving officer is blameless.

That said, your suggestion that we might be using your officers as guinea pigs for untested field tech is way off.
